Rugby star puts workwear through its paces
27 November 2015
Trojan is now an Official Workwear partner to the England Rugby League team and, to mark the launch of the partnership, Warrington Wolves player, Chris Hill, abseiled down the outside of the ArcelorMittal Orbit, a sculpture that rises above the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park in East London.

Dressed in a pair of Trojan Tradesmen trousers, a breathable polo shirt, a Trojan Soft-Shell jacket and a pair of Trojan Orpheus Safety Trainers, qualified plumber, Hill made easy work of the tricky launch and free-fall abseil.
He says: "I’ve now tested the Trojan range in the toughest of conditions and it passed. The clothes and trainers were really comfortable and the jacket, in particular, kept me warm as it was quite windy at the top of the Orbit. I can see Trojan is 100% designed for the job and I’d be happy working in this gear all day”.
